Randomized Controlled Trial
A Prospective Randomized Clinical Trial of Single vs. Double Layer Closure of Hysterotomy at the Time of Cesarean Delivery: The Effect on Uterine Scar Thickness.
We undertook a randomized clinical trial to examine the outcome of a single vs. a double layer uterine closure using ultrasound to assess uterine scar thickness. ⋯ A double layer closure of the hysterotomy is associated with a thicker myometrium scar only in primary or elective Cesarean delivery patients.

To identify the ultrasound (US) findings of intra-epineurial corticosteroid injection during US-guided hydrodissection in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), and to determine their clinical relevance in relation to treatment outcomes. ⋯ We characterized the US findings of intra-epineurial corticosteroid injection during US-guided hydrodissection. Intra-epineurial injection provided a more meaningfully reduction in edema of the MN, greater patient satisfaction, and greater symptom relief than extra-epineurial injection.
